Nirvana Top Laner, Reborn Tokyo Girl

Chapter 127, Section 124: Crushing TES Like Crushing Dogs (First Update)
"To put it bluntly, does 69 really want to pick a champion like this to challenge Shimamura's Jayce? Isn't he just asking to get spun around in lane?"

"Couldn't you have picked a different hero to go head-to-head with Shimamura-san???"

"Sigh, that's true. 69 probably wouldn't dare. If he were to face off against a carry, 69 would be blamed again. Who dares to take the blame for TES? Let me tell you, this is something no one can afford to take."

As they talked, the competition officially began.

Despite Longshen's commentary expressing his skepticism about 369's Quesantie vs. Jayce.

But honestly, Jess couldn't really do anything to Quesanti.

At least in terms of OP.GG's win rate, Quesanti even has a slight advantage.

It's just that Shimamura Yuna's long-range carry style was unstoppable against short-range opponents, and there were just too many instances of her becoming so fed and winning the game in the later stages.

Therefore, people have a stereotype that "you can't choose a character that gets hit by spinning tops to play with Shimamura Yuna". They feel that no matter what, when facing Shimamura Yuna, you have to choose a character with strong counter-strength so that Shimamura Yuna doesn't have a comfortable time in the early stages.

However.
From a results-oriented perspective, this game doesn't seem to have much to do with the top lane.

Because before they could even set off to support their father or before any problems arose with Quesanti.

The kill occurred first in the bottom lane.

At this point, only four minutes of the game had elapsed.

Moreover, the kill was not made by JKL, the LPL's first champion AD carry, the LPL's first world champion AD carry, and the absolute core of TES.

Instead, JKL was killed by CFO in the bottom lane.

Actually, judging from the footage, it can't be said that JKL made any mistakes in this play.

It was CFO's Alistar play in the bot lane that was so good.

A lightning-fast Flash-WQ combo knocked JKL into the air, leaving him no chance to react, and applied Ignite to his face.

JKL reacted quickly and used purification to extinguish the ignition.

However, for some reason, he didn't use Flash immediately afterward.

Instead, he held onto his Flash until Alistar's E skill was fully charged, then stunned him. After Ezreal unleashed a combo on him, he used a Flash that was essentially meaningless.

Seeing this, the TES fans present felt their hearts break.

Everyone felt like they were about to stop breathing.

As for Longshen, a well-known zombie and JKL known for his pure hatred on the internet, his tone at this moment can be described as cheerful.

"I just had to get out of this mess~ Ugh, I got knocked out again and killed by the line."

"Sigh, to be honest, we've gotten used to it."

"It feels like...it feels like everyday life, as simple as eating meat and drinking alcohol."

"Is there anything that surprised people? To be honest, everyone thinks it's pretty normal."

Dragon God's words were indeed harsh, and they were actually imbued with a great deal of his personal emotion towards JKL.

However, at this moment, almost no one wanted to argue anymore.

Even those who used to be JKL fans don't want to say anything at this moment.

Two words: disappointment.

After observing the situation over the past two days, while the entire team's performance was problematic, JKL's individual performance was also a significant issue.

So much so that when JKL was killed by CFO in the bottom lane, no one really felt anything.

I just felt like, "Holy crap, they're doing this again."

For the next two or three minutes, the pace of the game didn't change much.

Kanavi's Nidalee ganked and killed HongQ's Taliyah in the mid lane.

However, in terms of pace, the impact is not significant, as HongQ still maintains its economic lead over Yong En.

Needless to say, it goes without saying that it goes on the road.

Shimamura Yuna's Jess is as violent as ever.

After a few minutes of laning, with almost no interference and purely positional economic advantage, he was already 500 gold ahead of 369's Quesanti.

Seeing this, everyone felt it was not surprising at all.

It felt like a matter of course.

After all, Shimamura Yuna has always had this style.

Even Zeus, when facing Shimamura, would be slightly pressured by Shimamura if he didn't choose heroes with strong front-line confrontations.

You chose a spinning top out of 369? Do you expect to avoid getting whipped?
Whenever the camera cuts to the top lane, you see Shimamura Yuna's Jayce bullying 69's Quesanti again.

They either try to outmaneuver each other by positioning themselves and stealing points, or they trade blows with a single skill combo.

Anyway, it's obvious to the naked eye that 369 is having a hard time playing.

Seeing this scene, even the Dragon God couldn't help but sigh, "Alas, my 69."

"Can Shimamura-san really take on this Jayce? Can she really even do it??? Ugh, isn't this just asking me to die in 69???"

After that, the commentary returned to JKL.

Basically, his commentary consisted of constantly praising Shimamura's brilliance whenever he had a moment of glory.

When Shimamura wasn't on camera, they just kept talking about JKL.

Of course, the discussion wasn't about how awesome JKL is.

They mostly talked about JKL's off-court anecdotes.

Yeah, the kind that's a bit sarcastic or weird.

It's fair to say that as a well-known fan of TheShy, it's understandable that Longshen harbors such hatred towards JKL.

It just so happens that JKL has been performing poorly lately, and he ran into Longshen, so Longshen intensified his efforts to kick him while he was down.

At a time when JKL's public image is at an all-time low, this sarcastic tone not only doesn't offend most people, but it also makes a group of people in the live stream laugh along.

[Brother Shen is so hateful]

What exactly did JKL do to you?

This is what zombies are like.

As they were talking, everyone realized that at 14 minutes, TES had unknowingly fallen into a disadvantage again in the early game.

Top, middle, and bottom.
All three roads were blown up.

Yone in the mid lane couldn't beat Taliyah and was down by almost 400 gold.

Top laner 369's Old Black was also being pressured by Shimamura in terms of farm and tower plates, and without getting a kill, he had already gained a nearly 1000 gold advantage.

Needless to say, the bottom lane was killed as soon as they came up and were also down by several hundred gold.

In this situation of being at a disadvantage across the board, Kanavi's Nidalee, whose only advantage was, was completely unable to play her game effectively.

Even with a kill, the economy between them was neck and neck, with the lead being only 100 gold.

The six worms were completely brought under control.

By this point in the game, everyone was even starting to feel a bit terrified.

The alarm is not that TES will be at a disadvantage.

Rather, it's because TES's disadvantages are so natural.

Generally speaking, it's not impossible for regions like LCP or even Europe and North America to beat LPL.

But usually it's because LPL makes some major mistakes, or LPL teams make some basic mistakes in the early laning phase that shouldn't have happened, and then they get caught out and the snowball effect keeps going.

However, today's TES stands out for its naturalness.

At once.
JKL, being very simple-minded, got killed in lane.

The very simple top laner was defeated by Shimamura Yuna.

Even the seemingly simple mid-lane was suppressed.

Only Nidalee was left alone in the jungle, unable to hold on, and was even taken down by Sejuani and her teammates.

They can't control resources, they can't win team fights, and they're at a disadvantage in lane.

Even just looking at the lineup, it doesn't seem like they're that great in the late game.

This is truly baffling. Is this still an LPL team?
Can LPL teams really be at a disadvantage so naturally?

Just then, the top lane, having just finished taking down six insects and pushing down the first tower, saw a coordinated attack from Shimamura Yuna and mid laner HongQ.

After Shimamura Yuna's combo reduced Old Black's health to half, HongQ used his ultimate to block the path, followed by a precise Stone Scattering Array + Heal + Q, killing Old Black once again.

The head was given to Shimamura Yuna.

At this point, Shimamura Yuna had secured a 1500 yuan lead in her lane matchup.

Seeing this, many viewers really couldn't hold back anymore.

It's not that we can't accept that TES can't beat them.

However, it's really hard to accept that TES got crushed even more easily than TL, and that KC even beat EZ.

【Wait, what exactly is Top Esports doing?! ???】

[This is unbelievable. Is it really that bad? Is this the worst number one seed in LPL history?]

TES has truly made history.

It wasn't just the audience who looked strange.

From the perspective of the CFO player, this victory was also unbelievable.

Here, it's worth mentioning the outcome of an internal discussion on the CFO's side.
After losing to HLE that day, we did a post-match analysis.

That is, although the system centered around protecting Shimamura Yuna can consistently win against weaker teams.

But that's on the premise that weaker teams can't directly exploit their weaknesses and widen the gap.

However, when facing strong teams, they will exploit the gaps and break through them repeatedly, making those deliberately left gaps so large that no matter how much Shimamura Yuna plays, she can't keep up.

Therefore, the adjustments that need to be made are quite simple.

That is to return to the idea of ​​their Spring Tournament player, Shimamura Yuna.

In normal circumstances, when both sides have a sufficient number of heroes and some strong heroes are not yet banned, it is best to let REST play to withstand the ban/pick phase and play normally.

Winning would be ideal, but even if we lose, it will help Shimamura Yuna burn through some of her hero pool, reducing the strength of heroes on both sides before letting Shimamura Yuna play.

Even if Shimamura Yuna plays, this pure top lane protection strategy can no longer be used, as it really won't work against strong teams.

The problem is that, of the three teams they've faced so far, only HLE has given them that feeling of strength.

Does TES count?
Given their status as the LPL's number one seed and the sheer number of championship-winning players on the team, they definitely deserve a spot.

But judging from his recent behavior, it doesn't seem quite right.

So Coach Chawy finally decided to take a gamble.

I'm betting that TES isn't in good form, and that they can win even if they stick to this strategy of dominating weaker opponents.

If all else fails, we can change the tactics for the next game.

Anyway, even if we lose this game, it won't affect our qualification.

Well, guess what happened?

That gamble actually paid off.

TES is really ridiculously bad right now.

As soon as the CFO entered the game, he felt that he had no pressure in the laning phase at all, and he naturally dominated the lane and traded blows.

It was natural that they took the lead in the overall pace.

They couldn't understand why the game was so easy to play.

Shimamura Yuna also felt like she was laning against Quesanti in the top lane, and that spinning top was getting easier and easier to use.

Even if you covered up the other person's ID, she would find it hard to believe that the other person was actually TES.

Is it really that simple?

At this moment, the more smoothly Shimamura played, the more uneasy she felt about what would happen next.

She also watches the games frequently.

She knew that wildcard teams often had an early advantage when facing Chinese and Korean teams.

However, Chinese and Korean teams often only need to win one team fight to snowball the game back and leave the wildcard region unable to retaliate and utterly defeated.

It means that for wildcard regions to beat Chinese and Korean regions, they need many big wins.

However, in the China-Korea region, it often only takes one round to beat a wildcard.

This is the fundamental difference between the ability to manage advantages and hard power.

She was worried that something similar would happen this time, so she remained very cautious.

Even with a huge advantage in the early stages, they didn't celebrate.

Instead, he kept reminding his teammates, "We need to play more cautiously."

"We must not let them seize the opportunity to fight back."

Shimamura Yuna's caution was certainly well-founded.

The other teammates did not refute this.

After all, the two veterans from the Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan regions in CFO's team had already experienced the scenario of gaining an early advantage only to be seized and crushed in one fell swoop.

They understand best the meaning of this caution.

However.
What they didn't expect was
After that, TES really couldn't come back even once.

Yes, let alone an epic victory that could completely crush the CFO.

That means they can't win even in one wave.

Being a CFO is as easy and effortless as a high-ranking player beating a diamond-level player.

The headcount ratio gradually increased over time.

At 15 minutes, the kill ratio looked barely acceptable at 1:5.

Two minutes later, TES found an opportunity and got two kills, bringing the kill score back to 3:5.

However, as the game progressed, TES really didn't get a single kill.

Yes, that's the end.

Both sides showed a strong fighting spirit in the mid-game, engaging in numerous small team fights.

However, after so many small team fights, TES managed not to get a single kill and couldn't gain any advantage at all.

And then the audience just watched as they lost the small dragon team fight, the big dragon team fight, and the high ground team fight.

As they continued to lose, the kill ratio dropped to 15:3.

When they finally reached the high ground, in the last team fight, TES was wiped out again by CFO.

The game is finally over.

The head-to-head ratio remained at 19:3.

Shimamura Yuna's final economic lead was an astonishing 4000 yen.

Moreover, this game was played without any teammates giving her resources; she single-handedly dominated the lane, taking tower plates, second towers, minions, and kills to create the economic advantage.

Seeing this, even the Dragon God, who had always harbored a simple-minded hatred for JKL, couldn't hold back anymore.

He definitely hoped TES would lose.

But he really didn't expect to lose like this.

"Holy crap, is this for real? 19:3???"

"Hahahaha!!! Oh my, to be honest, isn't this a bit of an exaggeration?"

"How could they have been down 19-3? I feel like this is the easiest game CFO has ever played since the Pioneer Tournament."

To put it bluntly...

"Shimamura-san's domination of these TES players is really like dog abuse."
